And the filter is not enabled.
Can you tell us how many GPU where used and what is the render resolution ? In case it's directly related to specific values ?

- I am getting flashes of white as I move sliders in the render viewport like a strobe light effect. This is especially visible when you move the aperture slider. The screen flashes white in certain slider positions and slowly fades back to normal.
Yeah, I noticed that. It's not specifically related to slider values but things that are not reset in the accumulation. In the mean time, move slightly the view point and it'll disapear straight away.

At any number of GPU or CPU and any resolution, it happens, when lights are rare, as shown in screen shot.

Thanks..now it works fine on my 32bit system again (moving slowly to 64 due to lack of support for most of my programs) it works fine as far as I can tell, apart from the already mentioned flash effect during Camera Aperture..

Thanks again.

Hi Radiance,

Well, this new release is promising, and I'm concious that you have worked hard on it.

I don't like to bring bad news, and I'm really sorry to say that, but for me some bugs that are supposed to be fixed are still there :

- I have tested with one and two GPU (my internal 8800 GTS 512) and my new External GTX 260 in the X-Pander box, and the available memory amount displayed under the render screen is still O MB.

- Vertical strips are still there. They can be removed by switching Kernel from Directlighting to Pathtracing and coming back to Directlighting, but they appear again when you add a texture.

- Octane still freeze at exit.

- The Device manager still hide under the render screen, as well ast the Daylight animation panel and the Turntable panel.

- The Mesh Preview Kernel node output is not connected when opening Octane, until you move it in the graph editor (Not annoying, but weird).

Are you 100% sure you are using the RC2? Because it all look like you are the only one with those issue. Could you double check by downloading & installing again ?

Thanks

do you mean all your OBJ imports crash or they only crash after you've tried to open an older OCS file ?
They only crash after trying to open an older OCS.

Thanks,
